The graph shows the amount of money paid when purchasing bags of candy at the zoo:

A graph is shown. The x-axis is labeled from 0 to 9. The y-axis is labeled from 0 to 10. The four points shown on the graph are ordered pairs 0, 0 and 1, 2 and 2, 4 and 3, 6. These points are joined by a line. The label on the x-axis is Bags of candy. The title on the y-axis is Total cost in dollars.
Write an equation to represent the relationship between the total cost (y) and the number of bags of candy (x).

im sorry if i sound stupid i suck at math but the answers are only in fractions..?

so just so you can see how he got 2. 
so if you graph the line, you can find the relationship by picking any two points and then doing 
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) 
so if we used (1,2) and (2,4) you are going to do 
(4-2) / (2-1)
does that make sense?
